The build *works* for me from a fresh checkout.
For a double check, I did:
fresh checkout.
SET CLASSPATH=
cd c:\jbproject\jakarta-poi
build gump>mybuild.log
Here I attached a partial log of the build; I stopped it because it takes
all 11 minutes to /test/.
Before committing now I run the Gump target, that checks *all basic* targets
_indipendently_ and then _one after the other_.
More than this, I don't know what to do.
The problem is that I did a lot of work without documenting it, and you are
all a bit lost on the system, and post these messages like frustrated users
do (imagine what you would reply to a user question like this ;-)
I'm writing the documentation now, so things will get better.
Anyway, to build you need to:
1. set JAVA_HOME to point at your JDK installation
2. go in the jakarta-poi directory (ie cd /whatever/jakarta-poi)
3. do "build" or "./build.sh".
If you have JDK1.4 you need to put the /jakarta-poi/endorsed jars in
jre/lib/endorsed .
NOTE
---------
Many of the errors you found these days are Ant's, not of Centipede.
They are such that they come out in special cases and on other
configurations.
For example, the -projecthelp bug is only with the ant.sh script, and there
is a different behaviour with the concat Ant task on Wintel and *nix
systems.
